More about this Event
Step Beyond the NDIS | Join the Conversation
Gain Real Insights from Lived Experience & Mainstream Services
What supports exist beyond the NDIS and how can they better support the people we work with every day?
This April, Building Bridges Network brings together a powerful mix of community, mainstream, and advocacy services in an interactive, expo-style event designed to broaden the way we think about support.
We bring together professionals, providers, and community voices to explore the bigger picture where mainstream services, lived experience, and real-world insight come together to create more connected, meaningful support.
Building Beyond the NDIS: Mainstream Services Showcase
This month’s event is designed to help providers, professionals, and the wider community better understand the full ecosystem of support available to individuals and families beyond funded services alone.
Through a practical and engaging format, you’ll explore how different organisations, systems, and pathways can come together to support real-life situations.
What to expect at this event:
- An expo-style experience connecting you with mainstream and community-based organisations
- Practical insights into supports such as advocacy, employment pathways, government systems, crisis relief, and more
- Real-life scenarios and case-based discussions to guide learning and conversation
- Opportunities to strengthen your referral knowledge and network connections
Why Join Us?
Why this event matters and why you should join us!
Many individuals and families rely on a broader network of support, including:
- Community programs
- Advocacy services
- Government systems
- Practical and crisis-based supports
Understanding how these systems connect allows us to deliver more holistic, informed, and effective support.
